On May 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of FSB Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation and the parent holding company of Fairport Savings Bank (“FSB”). On that date, FSB was merged into Evans Bank, a wholly owned banking subsidiary of the Company. At the time of closing, FSB had $321.7 million in total assets, including $272.1 million in net loans receivable and $21.4 million in securities, and $293.1 million in total liabilities, including $237.7 million in deposits and $50.6 million in borrowings. FSB operated 5 banking offices in New York at the date of acquisition. After application of the election, allocation and proration procedures contained in the merger agreement, the Company paid $17.1 million in cash and issued 422,475 shares of Evans Bancorp, Inc. common stock in exchange for all of the shares of common stock of FSB Bancorp, Inc. outstanding at the time of the acquisition. The $11.7 million fair value of the shares issued as part of the consideration paid for FSB was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s shares on April 30, 2020.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible were recorded at their fair values as of May 1, 2020 based on management’s best estimate using the information available as of the merger date. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill of $1.8 million and a core deposit intangible of $0.2 million. Accounting guidance provides that an acquirer must recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period, which runs through May 1, 2021, in the measurement period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The acquirer must record in the financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization or other income effects, if any, as a result of the changes to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The Company will prepare tax returns related to the operation of the combined entities and the acquired entity and believes certain adjustments to income tax balances and goodwill may result upon completion of these returns.

The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed through the merger at fair value as summarized in the following table:

Explanation of certain fair value related adjustments:

(a)Represents the fair value adjustments on investment securities.

(b)Represents the fair value adjustments on the net book value of loans, which includes an interest rate mark and credit mark adjustment and the write-off of deferred fees/costs and premiums.

(c)Represents the elimination of FSB’s allowance for loan losses.

(d)Represents the fair value adjustments to reflect the fair value of land and buildings and premises and equipment, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets.

(e)Represents the intangible assets recorded to reflect the fair value of core deposits. The core deposit asset was recorded as an identifiable intangible asset and will be amortized on an accelerated basis over the estimated average life of the deposit base.

(f)Represents the fair value adjustments on operating lease right of use assets.

(g)Represents an adjustment to other assets acquired. The largest adjustment was to net deferred tax assets resulting from the fair value adjustments related to the acquired assets, liabilities assumed and identifiable intangible assets recorded.

(h)Represents fair value adjustments on time deposits, which will be treated as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the time deposits.

(i)Represents the fair value adjustments on FHLB borrowings, which will be treated as a decrease to interest expense over the life of the borrowings.

(j)Represents the fair value adjustments on operating lease liabilities.

(k)Represents an adjustment to other liabilities assumed.

The fair value of loans acquired from FSB were estimated using cash flow projections based on the remaining maturity and repricing terms. Cash flows were adjusted by estimating future credit losses and the rate of prepayments. Projected monthly cash flows were then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted market rate for similar loans. There was no carryover of FSB’s allowance for loan losses associated with the loans that were acquired, as the loans were initially recorded at fair value on the date of the FSB merger.

The core deposit intangible asset recognized is being amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately 10 years and the amortization is based on dollar weighted deposit runoff on an annualized basis.

Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes; however, it is reviewed at least annually for impairment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

The fair value of land and buildings was estimated using appraisals. Acquired equipment was not material. Buildings are amortized over their estimated useful lives of approximately 39 years. Improvements and equipment are amortized or depreciated over their estimated useful lives ranging up to 10 years.

The fair value of retail demand and interest bearing deposit accounts was assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits was estimated by discounting the contractual future cash flows using market rates offered for time deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Other borrowed funds include borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The fair value of these borrowings was estimated by discounting the contractual future cash flows using FHLB rates offered of similar maturities.

Direct acquisition and other charges incurred in connection with the FSB merger were expensed as incurred and totaled $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. These expenses were recorded in merger-related expense on the consolidated statements of income.
